(Clearwisdom.net) The annual Gothenburg Festival came to an end on August the 14th after eight days of colorful activities and celebrations.
Dafa practitioners were present on every day of the Festival, telling people what Falun Gong is and exposing the persecution of Falun Gong taking place in China. Lots of Swedish people came across to Falun Gong practitioners and said aloud, "Falun Gong is good". Some visitors who did not understand the facts about Falun Gong and some people who wanted to know a bit more all stopped and listened to what Swedish Dafa practitioners had to say.

In order to meet the needs of people coming from all over the world, Falun Gong practitioners prepared flyers in various languages. On the last day, the leaflets written in Swedish were running out and there were increasing numbers of people passing by. Some Swedish newspapers were published to report the truth about Falun Gong too. Towards the end of the activities, the newspapers had also almost run out.

There was a three-year-old girl who was especially memorable. When the girl, sitting on a bicycle pushed by her mother, passed where Dafa practitioners were introducing Falun Gong, she dismounted immediately and came up to our table and put a paper lotus in the middle of the table. When I asked her whether she wanted to present the lotus flower to Falun Gong practitioners, the little girl said yes. Watching the child's action, her smiling mother took some leaflets from me and said her daughter attended the Tregardsforeningen Park activity named "Peaceful Petals" and learned how to fold lotus flowers from paper. The paper lotus was made by her.
When they were leaving, I asked the little girl's mother whether it was alright to take photos of her daughter with the paper flower. She agreed happily. With her mother's consent, I took the photo below.
